Three boys and three girls were going to Lauderdale, Florida, dreaming of golden beaches as the gray cold of New York was left behind them. When the bus passed through New Jersey, they began to notice a man, who sat in front of them, dressed in a plain, ill-fitting suit, never moving,
his dusty face masking his age.
Shortly after a snack at the Howard Johnson’s outside Washington, they went back to the bus, and one of the girls sat beside him and introduced herself.
“We’re going to Florida，” she said brightly. “I hear it’s really beautiful.” “It is，” he said quietly, as if remembering something he had tried to forget. “Want some wine？” she said.
He smiled and took a full glass. After a while, slowly and painfully, he told his story. His name was Vingo and had been in jail in New York for the past four years. Last week he was released from imprisonment and now going home.
“When I was in prison I wrote to my wife，” he said. “I told her that I was going to be away a long time, and that if she couldn’t stand it, she could just forget me; I’d understand. We used to live in Brunswick, just before Jacksonville, and there’s a big oak tree just as you come into town. Last week, I wrote her again. I told her that if she’d take me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree, and I’d get off and come home. If she didn’t want me, forget it, no handkerchief, and I’d go on through.”
She told the others, and soon all of them were in it, caught up in the approach of Brunswick, waiting for the approach of the great oak tree. Now they were 10 miles from Brunswick, and then five. Then, suddenly, all of the young people were up out of their seats, screaming and shouting and crying, doing small dances of joy. The oak tree was covered with yellow handkerchiefs, 20 of them, 30 of them, maybe hundreds, a tree that stood like small flags of welcome flying in the wind. As the young people shouted, Vingo rose and made his way to the front of the bus to go home.
(B)61. What attracted the six young people when their bus passed through New Jersey? A. The Howard Johnson’s. B. A poorlydressed man. C. Golden beaches. D. A mysterious man with a mask.
(D)62. It can be inferred from the short conversation between the girl and Vingo that ________．
A. he had forgotten all his past B. he hated talking with strangers
C. he was a dangerous prisoner escaping from jail D. he was a man of few words but kind of friendly
(D)63. Vingo wrote a letter to his wife before starting off to ________． A. ask for her forgiveness
B. beg her to allow him back home
C. tie a yellow handkerchief to the oak tree D. make sure if she was still in love with him
(C)64. Why did all the young people shout with joy when they arrived in Brunswick? A. They were only 5 miles away from their destination. B. They were surprised to see so many welcoming people. C. They were sure that Vingo’s wife was expecting him home.
D. The oak tree was still standing there welcoming Vingo back home. (A)65. What can be the best title for the story? A. Going Home B. An Oak Tree C. Yellow Handkerchiefs D. A Bus Trip

When you look at yourself in the mirror, do you ever wonder why you look the way you do? No two faces look exactly alike, making a human face as unique as a fingerprint. Genetics (遗传学) obviously play a major role—no two faces share the same DNA. But even in identical twins, there are still small differences in their appearances. So what is it that makes each face different?
The answer lies in a small piece of your DNA called a “gene enhancer”， according to a study published in Science. “There are thousands of enhancers in the human genome，” study leader Axel Visel, a researcher with Berkeley Lab. US. told Discovery.
According to Visel, these DNA pieces act like switches, turning genes on and off and
therefore determining whether a certain facial feature develops in a fetus (胎儿) while it is still in the womb (子宫)．
What’s interesting about gene enhancers is that they don’t have to be found anywhere close to the genes they affect. They are able to control their targets from far away, which makes them even more influential.
To test how powerful these special DNA pieces are in shaping the face, researchers deleted three of the gene enhancers in mice and compared them with normal mice at 8 weeks of age. The results showed that each enhancer deletion caused a distinct set of differences in the shape of the face—for example, causing an increase or decrease in facial length or width.
In fact, scientists first noticed the existence of gene enhancers long ago, but they called them “junk DNA” back then because they didn’t produce proteins and were thought to have no biological function. But now “it’s increasingly clear that important functions are embedded in this junk” Visel told New Scientist.
Understanding this may help scientists learn why and how things go wrong as a fetus develops, leading to facial birth defects (缺陷) such as cleft lips. Maybe gene enhancers also play a role.
(A)66. What did Visel’s recent study uncover?
A. How gene enhancers help shape the appearance of the face. B. How gene enhancers affect the growth of the fetus. C. A new cure for facial birth defects.
D. The connection between gene enhancers and genetic mutations(变异)． (D)67. According to the article, gene enhancers ________． A. have a greater effect on genes closer to them B. used to be considered a good source of protein C. weren’t discovered until recently
D. have more biological functions than scientists used to think (C)68. What can we conclude from the article?
A. As a fetus develops in the womb, the number of gene enhancers increases in the fetus. B. The changes in gene enhancers may have something to do with genetic mutations.
C. The new findings about gene enhancers may help scientists learn more about facial birth defects.
D. Genetic mutations are believed to be the major cause of facial birth defects. (A)69. What does the underlined “embed” probably mean? A. Root. B. Find. C. Absorb. D. Research.
(B)70. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? A. Gene Enhancers Affects Birth Defects B. Facing Gene Enhancers C. The Power of DNA pieces
D. Gene Enhances Determines Your Personalities Part Ⅳ Writing (45 marks) Section A (10 marks)

3D printing is now one of the hottest and most interesting advancements in the design and marketing world today. 3D printing, also called additive manufacturing, is the process of creating 3D (three-dimensional) objects from a digital model. It can “print” in plastic, metal, nylon, and
over a hundred other materials. It is achieved with the use of additive processes, where following layers of material are laid down in different shapes.
With the growing popularity in the consumer market, 3D printing is certainly one of the printing innovations to follow in the 21st century. Here are some of the real benefits of 3D printing. It provides a wide variety of manufactured products, including customizable products and even an individual’s personal designs. It also helps companies save up to 70 percent of their manufacturing cost, which is attained through lower packaging and shipping costs. Additionally, more engineers are needed to design and build 3D printers, and more technicians are needed to maintain, use, and fix 3D printers too. Meanwhile, 3D printing may provide the manufacturing of human body parts or organs. While these usages are still experimental, the potential advantages are huge.
However, 3D printing has a number of challenges ahead. In the domestic market it is immature, expensive and unavailable. For the man in the street, it is not possible for 3D printer to become a mainstream technology in the near future. They think 3D printers cannot do anything. Besides, getting a 3D printer isn’t that easy! You need to order them online, often with a several-month delay. Furthermore, printing is s．..l...o...w. It takes a long time to build even the
smallest piece. Most videos you see are sped up or cut so you are not sitting there for an hour.
While it was a futuristic fantasy, 3D printing, is now a reality. With its relatively affordability and potential for cost savings, 3D printing presents an exciting step forward into the future.

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.
Chinese students always complain that they’re under great pressure and don’t get enough sleep. But they may be surprised to learn that they’re much luckier than their peers (同龄人) in South Korea and Japan, according to a recently published report, conducted by Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences on the physical and mental health of senior high school students in the three Asian countries.
Among nearly 6，000 high school students in the three countries, Chinese students are the tallest but poorest in physical fitness. Chinese students are on average 168.17cm, compared with 167.61cm for South Korean students and 164.70cm for Japanese students. Chinese students asked for sick leave more than students in other countries. About 72 percent of Korean students never asked for sick and injury leave during high school, compared to 53 percent for Japanese students and 45 percent for Chinese students.
As the survey presents, Japanese and South Korean students suffer more pressure. Statistics show 16 percent of students in China said they experienced mental pressure often over the past year, while the numbers in Japan and South Korea were 33 percent and 47 percent respectively. Their worries come from “study”， “friendships” and “relationship with their parents”. To go with stress, 57.9 percent of Korean students sleep the least, less than six hours a day, compared with 46.6 percent of Japanese students and 30 percent of Chinese students.
More Chinese students were satisfied with their physical appearance. In measures of self-worth, such as “I think I am valuable” and “I can complete many things”， “I won’t give up to failure，” Chinese students showed greater self-confidence than students in Japan and South
Korea and they are the happiest among the three.
81. According to the survey, who sleep the most? (No more than 2 words) Chinese_students.__ 82. Among the surveyed 6，000 students, how many Japanese students ever asked for leave? (No more than 3 words)

Recently, a programme named “Where Are We Going, Dad？” by Hunan TV is popular among all the ages.
The parentchild show deals with five wellknown but busy fathers experiencing country life together with their kids. Through the programme the kids are learning to be independent and the dads are becoming increasingly qualified.
After watching their stories, I can’t help thinking of my parents and there’re also many unforgettable memories between us. One Sunday ten years ago, my dad and I went camping on a mountain. He prepared all the equipment and taught me how to set up a tent, which for a boy of seven was not a piece of cake. He guided me patiently and thanked me much for my participation, making me feel I was very helpful! That was where my pride and confidence came.
As the programme tells us, parents play a significant role in the growing process of children. I’m grateful towards my parents for their devotion to educating me and accompanying me.

W: Hasn’’t the latest TIME magazine arrived yet? Today’s already Wednesday. M: Sorry, it’s late. Maybe tomorrow. You will read
When will the magazine probably arrive?
A. Wednesday. B. Thursday. C. Friday. The answer is B. Conversation 1
M: Mary, here are our holiday photos from Scotland. That’s the farm on which we stayed. And that’s John, the boy who lived opposite to our room.
W: Oh, is that the boy? His sister is a painter? You told me about him. M： Yes, that’s right. He was a lot of fun. We had a wonderful time.
W: I always take photos of people I meet on holiday and the places where we stay.
M: But this is the photo I like best. It’s also one of the funniest I’ve ever taken. We were eating in a restaurant when John’s chair broke. He fell and his face landed right in his plate of spaghetti!
Conversation 2
M: Did you ever win anything?
W: Well, yes, I did. I came in first in a little competition in the local newspaper, and it was this competition where you had to, um, finish the sentence “School is...”．
M: Right.
W: And design a poster and because I was quite a good student at the time, I said, “School is the key to a new and better world.”
M: So how old were you then?
W: It was ten years ago, and I was eleven. M: Oh. Right. So what did you win then?
W: I won a 20-dollar gift certificate to Hathaway House Bookshop, and I spent the whole
summer there because 20 dollars was quite a lot then. I still have the books that I bought there.
M: Lucky you. Conversation 3
W: Red House Restaurant. May I help you? M: I’d like to book a table. W: For how many? M: Just two.
W: For what time? M: 8：00.
W: I’m sorry, there aren’t any tables left for 8: 00, but we can give you one for 7：00 or 9：00. M: All right. 9：00 then.
W: May I have your name, please? M: Miller.
W: A table for two at 9：00 for Mr. Miller. Thank you. M: Thank you. Conversation 4
M: Here we are. This is it. I know it’s smaller than you wanted, but it’s one of the nicest flats in the building.
W: Does it have three bedrooms?
M: No, there are two. The master room is quite large though. Maybe you could let the children share the larger room, and you and your husband could use the smaller one.
W: I suppose I could do that. A three-bedroom flat will be difficult to find. I’ve been looking
for one over a week. The first three-bedroom flats that I have found are all extremely expensive.
You said that the rent would be 350 dollars a month.
M: Yes. It includes gas. So, as you can imagine, electricity and water are quite inexpensive. W: This sounds better and better. But before I sign all agreement I would like my husband to see it.
M: Why not stop by with him this morning? Our office is open until seven o’clock. W: OK. See you then.
Conversation 5
W: You are very quiet this evening. What’s the matter?
M: Well, I don’t like my job. There’s no one to talk to and the day goes so slowly. W: Then what do you plan to do? M: I intend to work in a hotel. W: Why a hotel?
M: Well, I can meet all kinds of people all over the world. Besides, most of the hotels are so beautiful.
W: Do you have any particular hotel in mind?
M: I hope to get a job in Garden Hotel. That’s a lovely hotel and it’s not far from my home. W: Then you have to work at night. M: It doesn’t matter much, I think. Conversation 6
W: Andrew, you’re quite a hero, aren’t you?
M: Am I? I didn’t know.
W: Have you ever been on the TV before this?
M: No. But, I’ve never found so much money before either. W: Tell me what happened that morning.
M: Well, I collected my newspapers at about eight o’clock and started my paper route. I went past the phone booth, and saw this black bag in one corner. I got off my bike to have a better look. It was just an ordinary bag, so I decided to find out who it belonged to.
W: When did you realize it was full of money? M: As soon as I opened it. W: What did you do next?
M: I rushed out of the booth, went to the nearest house and phoned the police. W: What did the police do with the bag?
M: I didn’t stay to find out. I had to go and continue the delivery of my newspapers. W: Were you late for school?
M: Only about five minutes. Nobody seemed to mind. Section B
